Here is a picture of my rocket, I am struggling to get to orbit. The rocket starts wobbling, struggles to actually turn east, and also doesnt have enough delta-v in the lower stage. What is wrong with my rocket? (This is the rocket from "Mun for dummies" tutorial

Your staging is wrong

#

The solid boosters are meant to fire separately from the swivel engines

#

Some other things are tweaking the thrust limiter on the engines so your thrust to weight ratio is close to 1.7 for lower stages for efficiency

#

I’ve used that rocket before and I know while it’s on srbs it doesn’t like to turn and that’s pretty normal

#

One you drop the srbs it gets way more maneuverable
